Description of the invention: [Technical field of the invention] The present invention relates to a pulse diagnosis instrument for a traditional Chinese medicine, which is not only convenient for the hospital to establish an electronic medical record of a patient in the future, but also a pulse pressure parameter measured by a non-invasive electronic diagnostic apparatus. At the same time, it can provide doctors with long-term clinical monitoring and physiological analysis. [Previous technology] With the advancement of biomedical technology, the blood pressure measurement for living organisms has evolved from early invasive measurement to today's non-invasive volume. Measurement. As shown in Figure 1, it is a system block diagram of a conventional non-intrusive measurement device. Mainly divided into two major categories of analog circuit 10 and digital circuit 12. The analog circuit 1 includes: a pressure sensor 1〇〇, a preamplifier 102, a high pass filter 1〇4, a low pass filter 1〇6, and a gain controller 108. The digital circuit 12 portion includes an analog/digital conversion circuit 120, a microprocessor 122, a drawing type liquid crystal display 124, a pressurizing motor, and a deflation valve 128. In a continuation, the TCM method is based on the pressure of the doctor's finger, by applying different degrees of pressure, and describing the reaction condition of the patient with his own touch, and then synthesizing all the information to assist in the diagnosis of the disease. . The most difficult place in this way is that the amount of exertion of the doctor can not be quantified and difficult to objectively record. However, in the market, the traditional pulse diagnosis apparatus H is mostly performed with a single point of J (10) single-iliac artery. Measurement, the measurement of the operation of the field fee k effort 'so' the invention to use the traditional (: continued convenience 'take the design of the just inflated, and; pulse diagnostic instrument' can provide physicians to monitor clinically Continuous pulse 1253923 way 0 [Invention content] ^The purpose of the invention 'mainly development' - the amount of different connection, and the number of miscellaneous pressure signals ^ ([power heart, use floating lift, Zhong Lin A,〗 Σσ精 is used to simulate the functional function of the Chinese medicine practitioners in the pulse to provide relevant TCM diagnosis and cardiovascular biologic auxiliary clinical application. The pressure of i II: The present invention provides - Pressing the pressure of the pulse to make a pressure pulse bag jl even 'money, its characteristics can be long-term L-determined pressure control method is easy to drink and measure - the pulse pressure signal of the limbs of the subject. The implementation of the square program The main body of the program can be divided into automatic and test, and the test mode is issued. The automatic mode adopts 10 constant constant pressure and constant pressure ^ /, the purpose is to quickly record the pulse pressure signal of the test subject. The manual mode can be used, and the user can adjust the applied pressure value as the measurement method. The purpose is to measure the continuous pulse wave signal for the systolic pressure, the average pressure and the diastolic pressure of the tester for a long time, and record the storage and analysis. - To familiarize the person skilled in the art with the purpose and characteristics of the present invention. The present invention will be described in detail by the following specific embodiments and with the accompanying drawings: w [Embodiment] FIG. 2 is a specific structural diagram of the pulse pressure signal measuring system of the present invention. The main part is composed of a cuff 20, a host circuit 22, a display device 24, and a storage device 26. The display device 24 usually adopts a drawing type liquid crystal display for displaying an instant pulse pressure signal, a differential signal, and an integral signal. , the heartbeat frequency, and the 1253923 parameter value, and then determine whether step 406 is to maintain the set time at the initial pressure value (Th), the time set by the local embodiment is 5 seconds, if If not (False), return to step 404; if the result of the determination is YES, then proceed to decision step 408 to determine whether the initial pressure value (Th) reaches a maximum pressure value (Pmax), the maximum pressure value (Pmax) The preset value in this embodiment is 120 mmHg. If not (False), the process proceeds to step 410 to activate the force port pressure motor 30, and the pressure set value (Po) is increased by a value added pressure value (Pup) to stop operation ( The value of the value-added pressure (Pup) is set to be 10 mmHg in the present embodiment, and returns to step 400. If the result of the determination is YES, the process proceeds to step 409, and the vent valve 36 is opened to the plenum bag 20 Perform rapid depressurization until OmmHg; the above steps are all in the automatic mode of the method of the present invention, as shown in Fig. 4A, the purpose of which is to measure the pulse pressure change of the subject under different pressures of pressure' as manual Reference indicator for mode measurement. Thereafter, the metrology system of the present invention will enter the manual mode as shown in Figure 4B. Step 412 applies a constant pressure value (Ps) to the inside of the cuff 20 by the pressurizing motor 30; step 414 determines whether the constant pressure value (Ps) is lower than a lower pressure limit (Pslow), if If it is (True), the process proceeds to step 416, the pressurizing motor 30 is started to pressurize the pressure bag 20, and after the pressurization, the pressurizing motor 30 is stopped, and then the process proceeds to step 414. If not (False), the process proceeds directly. Step 418; Step 418 is to determine whether the constant pressure value (Ps) is higher than a pressure upper limit value (Pshigh). If YES, then proceed to step 420 to open the deflation valve 36 to perform the pressure plenum bag 20. After stepping down, after stepping down to step 418, if not (False), step 422 is directly performed; step 422 is to measure the pulse pressure signal of the subject by the pressure sensor 200 to calculate the pulse pressure signal. The differential signal and the integral signal; the final step 424 is to set whether the constant pressure value (Ps) needs to be reset, and if so, it can be returned to step 412 to measure again. If not, the next step can be ended. 1253923 According to the manual mode of the present invention, the fewer steps 414 and 418 can achieve the effect of controlling the inflation pressure of the cuff 20 to maintain a constant pressure for a continuous period of time, wherein the lower pressure limit of step 414 is slightly less than the constant pressure (Ps). The pressure upper limit value of step 418 is slightly larger than the constant pressure value (Ps), and the constant pressure value (Ps) can be manually set, and the pressure setting range is 5 to 180 mmHg. Thereafter, after the operation of step 422, the corresponding physiological parameter values are finally calculated.
